Jo Bega recently visited a school in Nepal where clean water resulted in attendance increasing from 50% to 95% - what an amazing outcome. We would like to give this gift of water, taps and toilets to another school that desperately needs our help.

Story

It's been 5 years since teaming up with Child Rescue Nepal during my Everest climb and I remain so grateful for all the amazing work they do. I was able to personally visit the schools many of you helped build in 2019 which was an extremely special experience.

So when CEO Jo Bega heard I was climbing in Antarctica next week, and even though we left it to the very last minute (I am flying to union glacier Antarctica from Punta Arenas Chile and will be out of reach from tomorrow morning) I couldn't say no to working together again.

I've had two little boys since Everest and it just intensifies the meaning of the work Child Rescue Nepal does. Building and helping schools in remote areas and saving children from slavery.

At the moment they are desperately fundraising to provide taps and toilets to Laligurish School and are £5k short of their target. If we could raise £5k that would be great but as there are so many more schools in need I hope we can reach a little higher!

Thank you so much for anything you are able to give - I know they will really appreciate it.
